Extraterrestrials, that may range from single-celled organisms to beings with a

civilization

far more advanced than humanity may exist on other planets of the universe. Scientists do not have any evidence to prove their existence to date. According to one camp of scientists, messages should be sent to those aliens to confirm their existence;

however

, the other camp expresses concerns about hailing the attention of alien civilizations. I would delve into both the views in

this

essay. Due of over exploitation, the earth is slowly becoming uninhabitable,

to begin

with. In the true spirit of exploration, astrologists want to explore the space for the existence of advanced

life

forms which would be beneficial for us in the future. Cosmologists like Stephen hawking consider

this

advancement in the

of intelligent lives may get to a period in our future where we outgrow our evolutionary baggage.

Furthermore

, a

of extraterrestrial civilizations will make us not only technologically more proficient than we are, but more aware of the rarity and preciousness of

life

in the cosmos.

On the other hand

, there is a plethora of risks in contacting extraterrestrial scientists currently have no idea what alien

life

-forms might look like, or how they might respond to contact from human

civilization

Such

advanced aliens would perhaps become nomads, looking to conquer and colonize whatever planets they could reach. We don't know much about aliens, but we know about humans. If we look at history, contact between humans and less intelligent organisms have often been violent and have gone badly for the less advanced. A

civilization

reading one of our messages could be billions of years ahead of us. If so, they will be vastly more powerful, and may not see us as any more valuable than we see bacteria. In conclusion, even though I fear that an advanced alien

civilization

would have no problem wiping out the human race, the desire for the

for

life

beyond earth outgrows the risks and I strongly agree that it would give us a commitment to live. We are alive. We are intelligent. We must

Some people believe that children should study all subjects at school, while others think they should only study subjects they are good at or find interesting. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. You should write at least 250 words.
Some individuals claim that all subjects should be taught to children at school, however, proponents say that they should only engage in subjects they are interested in or talented. Although I agree that study which covers all subjects can be better for children, I argue that children should study in some specific lessons that they have an interest and skills.
